Windows Media Player Problem...

[djwoody]

I am unable to play DVDs in Windows Media Player.

The message I am getting is:
"Windows Media Player cannot play DVD video. You might need to adjust your Windows display settings. Open display settings in Control Panel, and then try lowering your screen resolution and color quality settings."

I have tried all resolutions etc, can anyone help?

Thanks
Chris

Hi Chris,

Is WinDVD installed?

[djwoody]

No I dont have WinDVD installed unfortunately.

I could do with installing it but i don't have it on CD.

Hey dj woody

Unfortunatly Windows Media Player or more specific Windows XP cannot play DVDs without the help of third-party software, There are loads of great free dvd playing software available to download over the internet

Here is a basic but very good example which i use often, Have a look an see what you think AVS DVD Player
